A short term focused organization.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- International culture and scale - Business Model (captive clients, comfortable revenue...)

Cons

- Pure finance approach (annual redundancy plan), - No employee focus (no recognition, no career plans, no consistant performance review), - No customer focus (only politics), - Too much politics. Examples of this: - Senior management spending time in internal politics and so ignoring both clients and employees. - Frequent redundancy plans (and mass hiring right before and right after). - High pressure and workload with lots of unpaid overtime several months before project closure (and success), no reward whatsoever in the end (just getting fired because project was delivered on time for annual redundancy plan...). - Individual layoff of experienced people as soon as they face a personal issue.

Great benefits, awesome co-workers, free food and drink in the kitchen, tons of happy hours (to dull the pain of layoffs)

Cons

Compensation (not competitive compared to industry), excessive outsourcing, the mass amount of work that people who are staying/left over must take on to account for all of the exits/lay offs, lack of culture in the US, poor technology
